Sorry about the lack of posting! (hangs head in shame) School is in full swing. My classes are great so far. Even my homeroom of juniors is terrific. We've been in session with kids now for four days and so far, so good.

As for knitting, I'm on row 23 of the Creatures of the Reef Shawl. The pattern is great, and I'm really enjoying knitting it. Now, if only I could find all those little stitch markers I've bought over time...

This weekend Daye and I are going up to Dahlonega to sit on the front porch of the Folkways Center and knit (and spin!) for an hour or two. The owner from the Wauka Valley Farm called me Sunday. She is local (maybe 40 minutes away I imagine) and I had emailed her about coming out and seeing her sheep, fleece, and whatever else there was to see. She told me that after the porch-sitting, we can drive out to her place if we wanted to. Yippee! More local contacts. :)

Not much else here other than I came home a little early with a sore throat and a sinker (sudden tired spell). Oh, and tomorrow is my birthday. Thirty-one and counting. WOW!
